Diaper Deal and More

Easy Saver Catalog and the coupon on page 17.

This week Walgreens is having an awesome diaper deal. You go in and pick up three packs JUMBO packs of their comfort stretch diapers, premium comfort stretch diapers, or comfort stretch training pants. You use the five dollar off coupon from the Easy Saver catalog this month (pick it up at the front of your store). It is at the bottom of page 17. It says Save $5 on two. You pay your money and get a $5 register reward to spend as you wish. Here is the break down.

3 pack of diapers at 5.99 = 17.97coupon takes 2.50 off per pack so = 17.97 - (2.50x3) = 10.47 plus taxThen you get five dollars in register rewards. So basically three packs of diapers for 6.50.

I've been getting the premium packs in a size four and those end up being about seven cents a diaper. The only thing is you can only get one register reward at a time so you have to buy them in groups of three. Also if you use your five dollar register reward from the diaper deal to buy more diapers you won't get another reward.

Walgreens also has some great deals on school supplies this week. Using coupons out of their weekly mailer that you can pick up at the store you can get five packs of Bic highlighters for 39 cents, five packs of paper mate mechanical pencils for 5 cents, Crayola markers for a two dollars (you can submit for a two dollar back rebate on these in the easy saver catalog), and a two pack of G2 pens for a dollar (these also have a one dollar rebate on them).

CVS has physician formula organic wear for buy ten get five dollars in ECBs (basically money you can spend in the store). I had a coupon for six dollars off bronzer. It was 11.99, I used the six dollar coupon, and then got five ECBs. They also have Trident Extra Care gum for buy one get one free. They are 1.49. For each two you buy you get 1 ECB up to five. That makes them about 25 cents a pack. Some people have coupons for these that sweeten the deal even further. I also used another two Johnson buddy coupons to get four more free bars of buddy soap. The soap is only 99 cents a pack so the two dollar off two coupon has to be adjusted down.

Finally Target has started clearancing out their value packs. If you have coupons for Oil of Olay, Secret Deodorant, Ziploc bags, Stayfree, dial soap, degree, old spice, suave , etc. you might want to stop by. Even without the coupons you can get a three pack of deodorant for four bucks or a six pack of soap bars and body wash for 3.82.
